Sorry I stuffed up the CC line on this email.
Anyone care to comment on the patch included?

If I read xtLog() correctly there is no way pxd can be used with out
being initialised.
The code goes something like:
xtLog()
{
...
if (tlck->type & tlckTRUNCATE) {
pxd_t pxd; /* truncated extent of xad */
....
if (twm == next - 1) {
...
pxd = pxdlock->pxd; /* save to format maplock */
...
}
...
if (twm == next - 1) {
...
pxdlock->pxd = pxd;
...
}
}
...
}
With no changes to twm or next between the 2 access.

I guess you could do something like:
---
if (tlck->type & tlckTRUNCATE) {
- pxd_t pxd; /* truncated extent of xad */
+ /* truncated extent of xad */
+ pxd_t pxd = {0, 0, 0}; /* FIXME: shutup GCC */
int twm;

But I don't really think that's acceptable.
However, in looking at this question I found a shadow variable, I think the
patch below is a reasonable fix.
